Now that I have all your attention I have an odd question for you. Does anyone else hate to have your feet not have enough room in your shoes to wiggle your toes? My sister and I were having a weird conversations a few weeks ago and this shoe the doc has got me wearing has me thinking about it. I might get anotherone and make a pair since the toes are open. I hate wearing tennis shoes/sneakers beacuse I like to be able to wiggly my toes and them not touch anything!!

Yep. I hate not being able to wiggle my toes. All summer long I either go barefoot or if I must wear shoes I wear sandles. During the winter I wear sneakers that I can wiggle my toes in. But I hate wearing sneakers but I also dont my feet frozen!

I am first and foremost a barefooter - I'm barefoot right now at my office!!
So I'm right there with you - my feet feel trapped unless they can "breathe" so I need plenty of wiggle room!!! Which ain't easy, seeing as I have a size EE foot!

So perhaps these shoes from the doc are a good thing. Now if they only came in better colors and were lace up instead of velcro......

I have Restless Leg Syndrome so I can't stand anything touching my feet or restricting my ankles. I abhor wearing socks and go barefooted if at all possible. I wear 1 pair of shoes in the summer, cheap black flip-flops from Old Navy. I only put on my tennis shoes to go to the gym. I can't even stand to have sheets touching my feet, so I can't tuck in the bottom of the bed.

I went to this shoe sale on Labor Day, all of their summer shoes were $3.99 a pair....so I bought 21 pairs! Yup yup! No lie! My hubby said "hun, do you really think you need the truck that day? How many shoes are you gonna buy?" I said "yes I need the truck."
Shoes almost make me high..... it's like euphoria!

Yup, really big, LOL...I'm 5'2" and my feet are small, a size 6, but WIIIIIIIIDE, lol...I can't go shopping at regular shoe stores, because the widest are always a D rather than the EE I need. I wear a lot of boys boots/sneakers, because they are usually wide enough. Good thing I don't have a shoe fetish!!!

I'm the exact same - SO glad to know I'm not alone! Even in the coldest of winter, my feet have to be able to "breathe!"

I prefer to be able to slip my feet out of my shoes whenever I want. I love sandals. I guess I do dislike having my feet constricted. It feels so good to get home and take my shoes off in the winter and stuff!

Yup. I've gotten that one, but usually not by family members.
